Hummus Packaging for Paris Producers
Paris is home to Île-de-France fromage-frais, crème-fraîche, dip, and traiteur producers. The SDH-R rotary hummus filling, sealing & cupping machine gives these producers a single, compact line that automates cup denesting, volumetric filling, membrane sealing, lidding, and optional nitrogen flushing — without the labour cost of manual packing.
Hummus is the SDH-R's signature product. The servo-driven volumetric piston filler handles classic, roasted garlic, roasted red pepper, lemon herb, and every other hummus variant with consistent fill weights and clean cup edges. Chickpea-based products have a medium-to-thick viscosity that the SDH-R's adjustable piston stroke manages precisely — from smooth restaurant-style hummus to chunky rustic blends with whole chickpeas and pine nuts.
Hummus Packaging in Paris: What Local Producers Should Know
Paris and the wider Île-de-France form a very dense chilled-food market, supplied through the Rungis wholesale market just south of the city and a network of supermarkets, épiceries fines, traiteurs and restaurants. The cosmopolitan population, including Levantine, North African, South Asian and East Asian communities, supports a wide range of dips, sauces, spreads and fresh dairy alongside classic French cheese and yoghurt. Office lunch trade, delivery platforms and gourmet retailers all favour neat, sealed cups. High wages and costly commercial space around the capital push small and mid-sized makers towards automatic filling that does not need a large crew.
Food businesses in the Paris region operate under Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 on food hygiene, with inspections by French state services, and Regulation (EC) No 1935/2004 for food-contact materials. Deliveries are short-haul and time-sensitive, with refrigerated vehicles serving the city from Rungis and the ring roads, and Charles de Gaulle and Orly available for air freight. The SDH-R is CE-marked and built in 304 stainless steel for tool-free strip-down, which suits frequent changeovers between short runs.

How the SDH-R Fills Hummus in Paris
Fully automatic process — no manual labour required
Cup Denesting
Empty cups are automatically separated from a nested stack and placed into the rotary table carriers. The pneumatic denester handles round, square, and rectangular cups from 2oz to 32oz — standard formats for hummus brands in Paris.
Servo-Driven Filling
The volumetric piston filler draws a precise dose of hummus and dispenses it into the cup. Servo control adjusts stroke length and speed per recipe, holding ±0.5% fill-weight accuracy across every run for Paris retail compliance.
Membrane Heat Sealing
Roll-stock film is drawn across the filled cup and heat-sealed to create a tamper-evident, airtight membrane. Temperature, pressure, and dwell time are individually controlled to match your specific film and cup material.
Snap-On Lid (Optional)
A pick-and-place mechanism applies a consumer-friendly snap-on lid over the membrane seal. This two-barrier system provides tamper evidence and reclosability — the standard expected by grocery retailers.
MAP Nitrogen Flush (Optional)
Modified Atmosphere Packaging replaces oxygen with food-grade nitrogen before sealing. For hummus, this extends refrigerated shelf life from 7–10 days to 30–45+ days — essential for distribution across Paris and beyond.
